Want to see what Scooby will look like in SCOOBY DOO'

Hey folks, Harry here and Hellboy sent me a pair of what seem to be promotional pics of SCOOBY DOO in the Movie of the same name. I love the look of Scooby here. And Lillard and Linda look great as Shaggy and Velma... BUT Freddie and Sarah look dead here. And while Scooby looks great, and I like Shaggy and Velma's look... I can't forget that the entire film is built on a script that sucks ass. But hey... Scooby looks cool... Now if they would digitally remove the offensive script and make a good one... we might be headed in the right direction!

What's the first pic? The link appears to be broken.
I'm sure this movie will be terrible, but I'll see it because it has one of the most gorgeous actresses in Hollywood. I'm talking, of course, about Linda Cardellini, late of the well-missed Freaks & Geeks. I don't dig the 'do, though.

This movie will blow harder than a Washington intern. Scooby in my opinion doesn't look "cool", he looks like a fucking plush doll (which I'm sure will be released to make money). Everybody knows Freddie Prinze Jr. can't act, the only reason he gets roles is because the girls think he's cute. Prinze has the amazing superpower of draining all charisma from a scene and making all men whose dates dragged them to the theater plus girls over 20 run from the theater in horror, wondering why they wasted their money!

It doesn't look too bad. The dog, that is. F.P. and Lillard look like a couple of schumcks. Didn't the casting director remember the age-old Principle of F.P. which states that any movie which features Freddie Prinze Jr. will suck beyond all standards of a shitty movie. Well, Bufyy looks hot so I'll be there opening weekend.

Only if Scoob is anatomically correct.
That would be worth the entrance fee - giant CGI testes bouncing across the screen.
Daphne certainly seems anatomically correct.
Shan't complain that they got her costume wrong.

The guys that did baby Dino for Viva Rock Vegas worked on him, I think....and they did some nice CGI work there. SD looks pretty much like you'd expect....cartoony exaggerated features but semi-realistic. The movie may suck, but at least CGI is as good as ever....?

Scooby looks cool...would have been better as a real dog. And why is Shaggy's hair not a bowl cut? What, are they screwing this up by ALSO setting it in the present day rather than where it should take place, in the seventies? This is definitely suffering from the movie-by-committee syndrome ala Inspector Gadget, and anyone working on the film knows it. The question is, why will know do anything to fix it? Laziness and ambivalence I tell you. Sure it might make a quick buck, but five years from now no one will even remember it...All that effort down the drain.

Does anyone remember the video that was shot on the set where SMG makes a big deal about her cleavage being a major part of the movie? Looks like she wasn't kidding. How many Scooby Snacks did it take to get her to do that?????

Scooby looks ok...Still won't see the damn movie though.If the script is as 'suck ass' as Harry has referred to it,regardless of the movie's look, it will be the biggest stink bomb in theaters.No need to go into how Freddie Prinze Jr has the acting ability of a clam.And who in Hollywood has come up with this Freddie Prinze Jr/Matthew Lillard buddy movie relationship? Last they were seen in 'Summer Catch'...by the three people who actually saw that.They're not Chris Tucker/Jackie Chan or Mel Gibson/Danny Glover buddy movie material. Stop casting these two wankers together as if they're some sort of divine comedic pairing. Wing Commander anyone? Lastly,with a god-awful script,this movie should be a bomb but if by some sick sense of humanity this movie becomes a blockbuster hit...I propose people coming out of the theater should be pubicly flogged (You people who made 'Tomb Raider' and 'The Mummy Returns' into hits take notice)Heh.

I grew up watching Scooby Doo and Daphne never looked that good!!! Freddy is pathetic looking, Shaggy and Velma look halfway decent. Scooby Doo looks ok I guess. Just from seeing the picture of the Scooby Doo Detective Agency, I am pretty sure I won't bother going to the theater and paying good money to watch it! I can wait til it is out for rent!

Something about his eyes... no matter where I go, the eyes seem to be following me, Mwahhhhhaaahhaaaahaaa!!! Actually, he looks pretty good, as do Shaggy and the girls, but Freddie Prinze Jr, looks like a douche bag. And this is not me jumping on the "Bash FP Jr Bandwagon". Besides one of those awful "I Know What You Did Last Summer" movies, I don't think I've ever seen one of his flicks. (I'm not exactly his target audience.) But the guy just doesn't look right at all in this part. Freddy should be bigger, more jock-like, and waspier. Even with that awful blonde hair, he looks too ethnic. I mean since when is their a shortage of blonde haired, blue eyed, all-American type actors in Hollywood?

Man, she looks almost nothing like the cartoon. She is really short even though her animated counterpart is tall, and she never wore go-go boots! Also, in the cartoon she was not anorexic looking! She was more leggy, quite a bit of a build like Nicole Kidman. Finally I agree with Sith Witch: What?, are Fred and Daphne not swingers anymore? If they had the scarves, got rid of the go-go boots, and changed around the script here-and-there during post-production then it would make up for any other egregious errors. I just wonder if the end titles has the theme reprise with these alternate added lyrics: Oh will there be---a Scooby 2? We're waitin' and we're willin'.

Since when has Shaggy been more than a 90 pound bean pole? And Velma was chunky, not the same weight as Daphne. And Fred shouldn't be that much smaller than Shaggy. Of course Fred should also be a man, but that's another story. Guess they knew the movie was going to suck so they pumped up the guys, slimmed the girls and bought anti-gravity bras from NASA. Maybe NASA also supplied all the barf bags that will be needed in the theaters for the people who go and actually see this stupid thing.

I'll come a knockin! If they retooled it as a softporn skinemax experience, they would be packing them in in droves! This is the first time in my life I've wanted to boink Velma. Ohhh! Jinkees! uuuhhh! Jinkies! Ahhhh! Jinkies! AD out

If Scooby would have been too cartoony, it would suck. If they would have used a realistic looking dog, it would suck. By using a perfect mix of the two, the designers have struck gold. It looks far better than I could have hoped. The only downfall... because they want to appeal to as many people as possible, i.e. children, Shaggy will probably be portrayed as a loveable idiot instead of a total pothead. That is a shame.

how well he interacts with Shaggy, the rest of the Mystery, INC. crew, and how he reacts to seeing the various ghosts and demons that they'll be encountering. Hopefully his animation will be top-notch.

Why is lillard in this movie? does fpjr really have enough pull to get this guy in every damn movie he's in? They were both in WCommander,Summer Catch...urghh!Why wont people realize they both suck, putting them together in one movie will make them suck harder!
I dont know why Lillard pisses me off, may be because he make more money than me for the shitty work he does, or may be because he has a peanut head and acts like a little-white-boy-wanna-be-rapper in EVERY movie.
I am now convinced that they both have contracts with satan.

i know, i know....there seems to be this weird pact with these 2 guys....and frankly, i've never thought that freddy prinze jr. was good in any role yet....but as for llilard....I just like they guy....he has this infectious grin..and this sort of 'goofy' cool.......ever since "hackers", I've watched with interest to see if he would amount to anything.....and so far, it's been a wee bit of a disapointment.....with any luck this will be the last of his freddy's buddy movies, and maybe he can do something on his own.....we'll see......but if you haven't seen hackers, i'd suggest renting it....it's far fetched, but an entertaining ride, and lillard as the hippy-esque 'cereal-killer' is just hysterical.....a great comic performance.....plus..johnny lee miller in the lead roll opposite angelina jolie....this flick rocks the casbah!....later folks...

If it was a shoddy-fakey looking CGI job, we'd rip it to pieces, but because he looks so real, we're kinda in awe and kinda disturbed at once. Now if they did a live action CGI Jabberjaw...THEN I'd be having nightmares for weeks.

Sorry to lower the tone, but Sarah Michelle Gellar's breast have seemingly returned to Buffy (Seasons 1-3) quality. So, this film can suck all it likes, I will be there... laughing most likely. The dog looks good, but big, and is it going to speak? What would be good though, is if CGI Scooby eats Freddie P. Excellent.

That thing scares me...but if they all smoke some weed and get in a big scooby snack laden orgy..then maybe we'll be cool...and it could be the first movie in which prinze jr. fucks a dog..or maybe not..who knows?!
About Lillard though, I dont think he's that bad...I thought he was pretty good in SLC Punk. But he does play the same friggin guy over and over again.

And it had nothing to do with the quality of the CGI--it's the look in the eyes, not OF the eyes, that diverges from the cartoon that I find sort of creepy. But aside from that, the rest of him looks great.

Why does FPJ look like Robin William's son from that other article? Do they share a hairdresser? Dear God, I can't wait to see the Miss Clairol commerical featuring those two.____Scooby's eyes look more like human eyes than dog eyes. That may explain the creepy factor.____LC makes a pretty good Velma and ML is okay as Shaggy. SMG needs to eat a Scooby Snack or two but at least that show of cleavage will keep the fellows entertained. What's in it for us ladies? Oh, FPJ, you say? How insulting!____A CGI Bee

FP,Jr would be tolerable as just another talentless, lottery winner, pretty-boy if he wasn't such a complete tool in real life. Read that hilarious interview with him on Dark Horizons a few weeks ago where he totally talks himself up, and how great an actor he thinks he is. My favourite quote from it: "All my characters are different". He also can't help but say what an incredible Spider-Man he would have made. Tosser.

After thinking about this picture...I agree with the person who said that it looks like Will Ferrell! It's friggin scarey! I cant wait to see the promo's though...where they showcase the amazing ability of the amazing computer effects...and show scoobie drying him self by shaking water off him self. Uggh for some reason I can see it now. This is gonna get worse before it get's better.

Whoever the artist was who incorporated Scooby into the picture of the rest of the gang is really terrible. I'd fire him in a second if he did that poor of a job on anything of mine. Look at Scooby around the feet. What a lazy incompetent artist.

Now all I need to do is actually talk to her...odd that she's 25 and still doing a math lab at the college she graduated from...perhaps some extra units or something, dunno. But still. Lindsey Weir is five feet away from me once a week! Sweet!

I mean... well, I know it's a kids movie, and I actually don't remember seeing his penis on cartoons.... But isn't it kind of odd? here we have this try-to-look-realistic dog... that just can't be THAT realistic...
Maybe CGI isn't THAT advanced ^0^
PS: By the way, How comes that shaggy looks bigger and more body-built than Fred? I thought he was the airhead... Shaggy is just a hippie.

One of those fuzzy nodding head dogs people put in the back seat of their cars so the head goes *wugga wugga wugga* as the Trans Am hits 85. Or possibly Fuzzy Wuzzy, the bear that emerged from a cake of soap in the 60s.

I'm pretty sure Daphne in the cartoon of SD wasn't a street-walker turning tricks for smack. I'm postive she didn't wear a low cut dress like that.
The answer to this puzzle of puzzles is that poor old SMG can't act for $hit so she might as well bear some cleavage to get the punters through the door. That whiney little voice of hers drives my cat up the frickin' wall.
I don't have a crystal ball but I can tell you this movie will flop bigtime. I damn well hope so as I don't want a sequel to this abomination filmed in my hometown again.

Since you obviously do, Lets start with Daphne: bad casting to start with, Daphne was tall very leggy, they got her costume completely wrong and thank god I'm not the only one who noticed no scarf.BTW, she had red red hair not blonde. Sarah Michelle Gellar's most likely to do a chop job on actually pulling off Daphne's personality. (hey Sarah stick to Buffy and only Buffy please?????)
Freddie Prinze Jr.???? That would basically be all I would have to say about that but I'll go on... No scarf bad costuming once again, and since when did Shaggy become more muscular than Fred? Fred was supposed to be the man in this movie, guess they went wrong there. And one little other comment on him, does anyone else notice that Freddie Prinze Jr. looks simply ridiculous with blonde hair? Grrrr..........
To go on, the only thing I have to say about Velma is that I basically think that they did a fairly good job with her, but wasn't she supposed to be a bit on the chunky side? Oh well... So much for variety...
Matthew Lillard. hrm, where to start? Too muscular, Shaggy is supposed to be thin and boney, clumsy and dumb looking...oh wait, he already IS dumb looking...sorry maybe a baggier shirt would make him look smaller instead of clinging to his muscles. Hmph....
As for Scooby, he was supposed be a large dog and to the dismay of many, that looks fairly accurate...
There is my little piece of venting from Hollywood (or at least somewhere close to it)maybe if we actually don't go see this the casting and costumers will end up throwing themselves off a bridge... If we are so lucky, one can hope.

Scooby was supposed to be sorta dumb-looking. That's part of what made him so loveable. And did Freddie Prinze Jr. put crisco in his hair? He reminds me of the "Calvin and Hobbes" strip where Calvin steals crisco from his mom's pantry because he thinks it will make him look cooler. Where's Hobbes when you need him?

Freddie's a weakling? Shaggy's buff? Daphnie's short? The only one who looks remotely like the cartoon is Velma. How can they think casting the star of the week will make them more money than actual GOOD CASTING? At least they went with good looking actors unlike Cowwoman as Betty in the Flinstones...

Scooby is rather cool looking I have to admit. Velma looks like Velma as I remember her. Shaggy looks like well, like he's shagged out. Geller look's as hot as she ever does. Although I have to say that I remember Daphne was a redhead and I don't think SMG is right for the part. Denise Richards gets my vote! And then we come to Fred.... the only thing that Prinze has in common with Fred is the name. I mean forget the fact that he can't act, has no charisma that anyone has located as such (I'm sure he's a nice guy in real life. SMG certianly can't be going out with him 'cos of his talent!). But he is just so wrong!!! Look at him, just look at him! I always got the impression as I grew older watching the cartoon that Fred was a nice bloke that could if nessercery kick ass but with Prinze playing him I can't see him kicking up a fuss over something!! My 10yr old brother could kick Prinze's version of Fred into the middle of next week!! He looks like such a wimp! All those that have said that we should lay off FP, that he might be good in this film can't possably defend him now! He is just....wrong!

Kill it. Its evil. Where is Triumph when you need him? **** Sigh, Linda Cardalini had better of been given a big fat check and a super swank trailer for this.... I hope a producer on a real project will see what a talent she is.

The characters of Fred and Daphne are SUPPOSED to be vacuuous, lame-brained bimbos. Sure, Freddy Prinze Jr. always has the same "Keanu-on-downers" look in his eye, but Sarah seems to be... oh forget it. Eventually, Freddie will run out of steam and end up playing a young college professor on a sitcom, with Lillard as his goofy-but-lovable basketball coaching best friend. And how can you teach children to read if they can't even fit inside the building?

He's got about a foot and a half on Fred. And look at those guns! I thought Shaggy was supposed to be a strung-out skinny beatnik with a case of the cannabis-fueled munchies! Maybe after smoking some Doobie Snacks he gets a craving for Power Bars.

His handlers have desparately been searching for a role where he could stare blankly at his costars (as is his style) and yet not get confused when they refered to him by a different name! This job is the first in a string of movies staring Printz as a man named Freddy (a'la Jackie Chan's many Jackie characters) and a last ditch effort at maintaining the career of a massively untalented cash cow!........ seriously I agree 100% with Harry on this one. Shaggy looks fine (though a little buff, my pal Harvey would have been perfect in that role) and Thelma is great (Mmm... Cardallini.... Mmm... Thelma...), but Geller and Printz are ridiculous in those roles. Printz is as far from the tall, blonde, all american cliche that Fred was, as you could possibly get, and geller is totally wrong for a sex pot, redhead bombshell. Keywords, blonde, and redhead.

Ok, The Scoob looks like he's a female dog. I don't remember Dhapne showing clevage! Freddie Prince looks like a gay preppie, at least Fred had a built. Freddie Prince doesn't look like he could beat up Velma! The Velma pick looks picture perfect although maybe not since I'd sleep with that Velma. Sometimes you should look for someone..nerdy. Lillard looks like a crack head, not the mary jane smoker that Shaggy was. The cast is out of place, WHERE IS DHAPNE'S RED HAIR!!! This cast stinks but the movie will do good since most teenagers are MORONS!

Um.. in case this wasn't answered yet. To that person who thought scooby being that big was a mistake. Scooby is a Great Dane. One of the tallest dogs in the world. They are HUGE. I have seen some the size of ponies, heads that end near a grown mans chest. That is why he is so big. I think they all look great, except for maybe shaggy. In that pic he looks a bit to buff and confident. I have to look at it again, but his arms look a little to big and he has an I CAN KICK ASS smirk. Wasn't Shaggy a weak really skinny coward... yes yes he was. All of then look pretty damn good though.

kkkkoooooooolllllll!!!.....Yet I can't help feeling that due to recent events and Hollywood acting like the gaurdians of sensitivity by recalling and re-assessing it's usual fodder, stuff like Scooby Doo is the sort of dippy porn that's gonna score well upon release and it's probably just the tit of the icebird.That being said,Scooby is looking kinda wierd....far too smart, change it round so the dog's real and the gang are CGI.

what the score here? popeye=so-so movie, better than the rest on my list. josie and the pussycats=couldn't decide if it was a goofy kids movie or a foulmouth teen movie. flintstones=complex plot, dumb story. as for viva rock vegas, didn't bother. rocky & bullwinkle= didn't see it, it had already been done once before with dave thomas and sally kellerman. so what are the chances that scooby doo is not gonna suck?

Freddy does have some sense in him, as soon as the movie was over, HE SHAVED HIS HEAD. I guess he felt the same way about the hair as we did. But for the reality of Daphne in THAT photo, you people need to remember that this is like the AFTER kinda photo. You know, like how they changed? I donno if Daph got intoduced to mr bleach or fred mr. I'm-a-puny-shrip-but-at-least-my-hair's-gelled-right, but I'm not expecting genius from this movie. Remember guys, this movie is directed towards post pubecent hormonaly driven teenagers, not overly skeptical 32 year olds. Maybe SMG's Boobs bounce when she runs, maybe Freddie will have an erection the size of kingdom come, but hey, who cares! all i know is when i download it off of the internet, I'll be enjoyin the erection. HAHAHAHAHA. Hey, in the end i'm still a woman.

Not only does shaggy look like he'll just beat the holy shit out of anything that tries to scare him away from whatever place for whatever inane reason, but just look at his face - and you say the the dog is creepy?
He looks like he's planning to rape SMG or something!
I also don't remember Fred being a greased queen.

The dog looks great, and so do Lillard and Cardinelli... maybe Fred and Daphne will sneak off for 90% of the movie, like the cartoon, and let Shaggy, Scooby and Velma carry the rest. They seem like the most capable of the whole cast.

Is this some kind of mass hysteria I'm witnessing? Did anyone here think a good feature could come out of Scooby Doo? SCOOBY DOO? Don't get me wrong, I'm not the least bit bothered by the mindless fun of the horribly dated Hanna Barbera cartoons involving a bunch of kids and their talking dog who drove around in a late 60s love van de-bunking ghost scares. It's actually pretty amusing stuff when you put your brain into sleep-mode. Casey Kasum's voice is always a hoot as well. I'm just bewildered by all the Cahiers Du Cinema-esque angst on this talkback. People are talking about the script for this thing like it's the long-awaited screen adaptation of Catcher in the Rye or something. People listen to me: THIS IS SCOOBY DOO. Even if the most talented group of filmmakers and actors put any thought into making a feature (live, CG, 2-D animation, what have you) out of this, the end result would be a big joke anyway! IT'S SCOOBY DOO. It was already bad. That's what made it so much kooky fun. I personally thought J&SBSB revealed just how out-of-date the original was to begin with. That being said, I will be seeing this movie in the privacy of my own home when it comes out on video for one reason and one reason alone. The incredibly spank-able Linda Cardellini. Now you know the real reason why I'll need the privacy...

Matthew Lillard and Freddie Prinze Jr. are the "Two Coreys" of the late 90s/early 2000s!!
If one of them is in a movie, its bound to suck ass, if BOTH of them are in the same movie, the suckiness is not multiplied, it is squared! Please stop casting these fools in anything! Haven't you learned anything from the box office on the movies they have been making the past couple of years? These guys must have stellar agents.

... They're going to do an all-CGI Freddy. Looks like the graphic designers have a little more work to do with the 3D modeling to make the character look a little more realistic, though. Wonder where they found the funny-looking Great Dane?

ok, I said when I heard the cast list that I just can't see Preddie Prinze jr as Fred. Well, I've seen the picture, and I'm still not buying it. where's the ascot? Were's the MUSCLES?? And we won't even start on Shaggy. I wouldn've preffered Tom Green, who was the person i heard was playing him early on.No I don't like Tom Green, but he looks the prt without any help.but you know what? LOVE THAT DOG!

Okay, I grew up watching Scooby Doo, and I have no intention of seeing this, whether it's the best movie since "On The Waterfront," or another "Wing Commander." I just don't see the need for it. "Look, it's cartoon characters played by real people." Wonderful. Or is that "Real characters played by cartoon people?"

I think Scooby looks awesome! Isn't he supossed to look huge? He was huge in the cartoon. After all, Scooby's a Great Dane and they are HUGE! Its based on a cartoon not real people or aniamls. I think they look great.

I dont know which picture you're all looking at, but that dog does not resemble Scooby Doo. Sure, it looks like a very well done CGI real/cartoony dog, but it doesn't resemble Scoob. Not the head, at least. And it wouldn't have been difficult to make him more like Scooby. They have plastic Scooby toys, which held from any angle, look like Scoob. A good example of a cartoon to CGI crossover would have to be the Simpsons, when Homer went 3D. But I suppose in comparison with how the rest of the characters look apposed to thei cartoon selves, Scoob fits in. Which means...none of them look right. And with a movie like this, the look is very important! Secondly, we'll have to listen to how they sound! Scoob better sound like Scooby, not Arnold Scwarzeneggar ""get the heroes!""
Rawhkey

but this looks weaker than a broke-dick dog.
And as I remember, Daphne had it goin' on. Sarah seems always a little embarrassed to play the vixen. One thing you can tell by looking at her: them boots ain't made for knockin'.

Man, I knew he was a 90's style dog but what happened? Scoobs got a face lift and turned into Ellen Degenrees! You know who SHOULD have been the cast for Scooby Doo? Go see Jay and Silent Bob strike back. THAT was a better cast than this! Man, I hope they change the Scooby formula and let the villian KILL the characters! FRED MUST DIE! Lillard has the body type for Shaggy but his acting skills...they could people crave Paulie Shore's performanc in "BioDome"!

I don't remember her being that slim in the cartoons. Linda seems to have captured the essential 'Velma-ishness' though. SMG looks like Buffy in a halloween costume rather than Daphne, but then she is totally wrong for Daphne and they only cast her so that her fans would see the film. It'll probably work too. Matt Lillard actually looks fairly close - or as close as a real human could get. Freddie looks a match for SMG - which is to say, very poor casting. Scooby... Looks OK. Not great, not bad. I doubt I'll watch this.

Scooby Doo was a dumb ass show and you expect a brilliant script?? HAHAHA You sound like one of those sheltered fanboys that held high expectations for TOMB RAIDER (a movie based on a video game) What are you expecting? Daphne overcoming her childhood under her abusive alcoholic father and finding the inner strength to solve the mystery of the pirate ghosts?.. or maybe you were hoping Fred would have a major character breakthrough and come to grips with his latent homosexuality. Perhaps you were hoping Shaggy would be a desperate Trainspotting style junkie stripped of his humanity with only his dog scooby as his friend. What kind of a script did you expect? It's fuckin' Scooby Doo.. of course it's gonna suck... lighten up.

The original shot of the Scooby Gang (before Scooby was actually created) was a lot more acuarate than this shot is. I think the Scooby Gang seen in Jay & Silent Bob looked closer to the real thing, even though they were on-screen for 5 minutes (maybe less). I probably won't see it anyway (I would have if it wasn't for that meddlin' Prinze!). If they want my 8 bucks, they should at least give their life-like Scooby some sort of package and have him and the now-buff Shaggy (:0) smoke some grass and/or eat big sandwiches after dealing them like playing cards, just like old times>

Shoulda had Dustin "Screch" Diamond as Shaggy. This guy looks ALL wrong! What, has Shaggy been working out? Sarah is doable, but Freddy and the guy playing Shaggy is a disgrace! Bill Hanna is rolling over in his grave!

U know for a horse..er.. Great Dane...Scooby is cute!...And since Scooby is a Great Dane he'd be able to eat ya up...I know that Great Danes*at least the ones that I've seen* can get up to 4 feet tall...tall enough for midgets to ride like horses!!...It's fun riding a Great Dane like it's a horse *L*...I wonder tho if we'll see Scooby's relatives tho? Like Mamma Doo, Papa Doo, Scooby Dee, Scrappy Doo,ect...oh and FYI..Scooby is from DoosVille *lol*...

They all look okay except for Freddie. He doesn't look like Fred at all. And why other girls think he's hot is beyond me. S.M.G. doesn't look quite right, either, but she looks okay. Velma looks great. Scooby and Shaggy look okay. I don't know if I'll see this or not. Probably not. Depends on whether or not I have anything at all to do while it's in theaters.

in describing how badly this film is going to suck. What was the last "good" Prinze/Lillard movie you ever saw? And having Buffy as Daphne is SO obviously a ploy to get butts in the theater that I'm embarassed for Ms. Gellar. I don't care how bad ArchDiver wants to bone her. :)

Just for kicks, I messed with the picture up top of this page, and it looks a LITTLE closer to the toon style, but I am sure a practiced CGI artist could have done wayyyy better. Looks like it was a matter of misdirected aesthetics. If you want to see my experiment, go to http://members.aol.com/bloodhand/sdbrows.jpg

Lose the stupid boots on Sarah!
If we faithful fans don't get to see her in pink pantyhose the way she's supposed to be we'll be mighty upset!
Also the guy who said FPJr is too ethnic and not jock-y enough was right. I mean he should be taller than Shaggy for starters. And a lot beefier.

Okay, first, this movie could have been a great idea. Jeneane Gorofolo (or however you spell it) is perfect for a tongue in cheek Velma, Jim Carrey as Shaggy solely for his height and use of physical comedy, Fred's difficult, maybe Tim Daly (Joe on Wings, or The Fugitive if anyone watched that), and Daphne, well, she's completely peripheral. But, this cast is all wrong! People who would want to see a Scooby Doo movie are not the same people to see a Freddie Prinze Jr./Matthew Lillard movie. If that isn't bad enough, just imagine how unnerving it will be once previews come on and we have to start hearing Lillard do his best Shaggy voice. Speaking of which, did anyone see Rob Lowe do his impersonation of Shaggy on SNL? It was uncanny! How much you want to bet that Scrappy shows up in the end as some sort of horrible Lost In Space-like hint of a sequel?

Oh, please tell me wacky funnyman Rip Taylor was available to play the demented fiend du jour in THIS one! Or at least, jovial, portly old Jerry (The Beev) Mathers!
I smelled "bad" long ago, when I first herad speculation on a SCOOBY mixed feature, and my wife passed a spoon of shredded wheat through her nose wen I left the photos up on the computer, this morning. This shrieks "My God, I Am One DOOMED Flick" in a thousand and one tortured voices.
The loose ends on this one are too numerous to really touch on, but what the heck. Things that struck me most were:
1) That unsetlting and really, really unhealthy Pat Boone quality of suddenly-sensitive Freddy. I won't ay "gay," but has anyone ever wondered just who painted the Mystery Machine all purple and green, with those tastefully oversized flowers? Hmm?
2) Velma's thick soled footwear. The original style from the series was clearly the Ultra Nerdette Penny Loafer. Those went out of stuyle around '69, and just _didn't_ have those skyhigh soles.
Well, maybe one of the key plot elements this time 'round is that she falls and gets devoured in the opening scene, leading to all sorts of ungodly angst for whole...seconds...by her vapid little pals.
3) That new, blonde look of "Tough Boots" Daphne. Is this to be a new, ultra-vixen Daph?
SEE! Daphne stake each and every rubber-masked terror she encounters, "just in case."
REALIZE! That this may well spell considerable legal annoyance as the monsters are, after all, generally clueless thugs who have yet to realize that a real gun with real bullets carries a tad more terror value than a poorly painted WalMart cast-off mask.
THRILL! To the lengthy court battle and subsequent life sentences for those zany kids (and their puppy, too)!
I find myself hoping for a TRON-ish shock ending as Scoob derezzes in slo mo.
Fact it, folks. This may well be the Terrorists' end-game ploy. The JOSIE movie being the opening shot...

What are these people thinking?? In ALL the years I've been watching this show, I have never seen Daphne look like a go-go hooker. Shaggy looks a bit bulky, but if he can pull off the impression of being a gymnast in the movie, he'll do fine. They didn't do a bad job with Velma, at least they had the decency to stick with her original outfit and hair. FPJ looks really silly; who the hell thought that one up?? As for the animated Scooby... What did you expect? A real dog? Considering the premise of this movie, it's a good attempt at some legitimacy. I wish them a lot of luck.

I decided to use this opportunity to tell the world what I think of FPJ. FPJ redefines the meaning of the words "NO TALENT ASS CLOWN". If I were trapped on a desert Island, and all I had for "Entertainment" (and I use that term loosely) was Freddie P movies, I would bonk myself in the head with a coconut and then lay in the tide until a shark came along and ate me. I don't know who in GODS name keeps giving this worthless chunk of dung roles, but if they happen to read this PLEASE, FOR CHRIST'S SAKE, we are BEGGING you - DON'T do this to us anymore. Any rational human being would have to agree that continuing to do this is a torture that is inhumane and unwarranted ! I mean, what did we ever do to you ? I would agree to be the official Harry Knowles piss boy if that's what it would take to keep FPJ out of Hollywood. I wouldn't walk across a street to kick this Monkey fart yet some-one keeps casting him in movies and flashing him out to the world like some kid proud of their first crap. "Look Mom, I made a poopie" ought to be tattooed on his head, but like a bad penny - he keeps turning up. This time to defile a cartoon which I admired as a kid. Enough is enough. Turn this undulating pile of vomit out on his keister next time he pops up for a job interview. The public will thank you.

This movie will rock. Did anyone see the Specials? BUY THE DVD! You will thank me. It's funny as hell! Did you read the novel, "The Toy Collector"? Same deal. James Gunn is a VERY talented and funny writer. I havent read the Scooby Script but I have faith in anything GUnn puts his name to.

considering that i am the guy who painted the images posted here(of scooby not the gang) its is interesting to read what everyone thinks. blergel got it right on with his groucho marks eyebrows, we had versions like this as well as countless numbers of other things ranging from spot shape to fur color to iris size. its been a fun project to work on and the animated versions of scooby created here at rhythm & hues are starting to look great. if you want to see more of my work go to www.nickpugh.com or for r&h www.rhythm.com

They could have included Scrappy Doo, arguably the worst thing that ever happened in the history of television... ever. What could be worse than Scrappy Traps? Wait, don't answer that.
PUPPY POWER!!!! :-/

Well, at least in that picture from imdb Fred and Daphne have their swinger scarves....

as for the rest: FPjr looks how he always looks, like a homo(no offence to all the gays out there)shaggy looks ok but where is his cool little ghotee? velma looks perfect, good job with that one. as for daphne, i dont remember being able to see so much of her breast in the cartoon. maybe i need to start watch the show again.

I must say, I didn't picture Shaggy as buffer than Fred. But, hey... I can live with it. I don't mind seeing it done in a different way. This should be an interesting movie. I for one will not base my judgement of the movie on how it compares with the cartoon. But rather I'll base it on the movie itself. Also I won't make any assertians that any of the actors are incapable of playing their roles. For me, jumping to such conclusions would be unfair and close-minded. So my opinions on the look of the characters is now nuetral, and I will come to a conclusion when I see them in action.

That CGI thing doesn't look like Scooby Doo. Why change his look so much? Is 'Re-imagining' becoming the code word for 'took-old-stuff-and-at-least-partially-turned-it-into-shit'? Remember the CGI Dino in the Flintstones movies? Looked just like the old Dino, just much more detail. Gave the old character new life. Even if you hated the Flintstones movies, the dino thing worked. This Scooby looks too bland. Were they attempting less cartoonish? More cuddly? Looks like they're getting more miss than hit.

Shit, that is 1 hell of a long title, still, it expressed many emotions within me, also, I am surprised that Prinze wasnt given a little more shit in the article, not scared are you Harry, fuck, I will back you up, anyway, what is with all the love shown towards this fucken shithouse cgi scooby. It sucks, sucks dammit, it doesnt look realistic, it looks sh*thouse, it looks like it has been mutated, the thing is huge and as said, he has no cock, not that Im interested, but I would have thought it could be a worthwhile sceen in a film of nothing. Also does anyone know what this film is to rated?

The original Scooby Doo was written poorly, drawn poorly and it always looked like it was done in a hurry -just a fun childhood memory. Is everyone here expecting a new Gone With the Wind or Maltese Falcon? Yeah, right. This will be the same crap as the summer of '01, like Jeepers Creepers, Hardball, Glitter and Ghost of Mars. More filler.

I've been a Scooby fan all of my life and I want to know how someone who obviously isn't a Scooby fan can make a movie from the cartoon. Daphne is totally wrong, Freddie is too small and looks like his hair has been dyed blonde (oh,wait...), Velma doesn't look too bad except she's too thin . I don't think Shaggy looks too bad except the hair is wrong. But I don't think Scooby looks right at all. Okay, so he isn't a real dog(just don't tell Scooby that) so they're modeling after a cartoon, but if you can't get the
main character to look just right then why make the movie at all?
Dump the movie and let us all remember Scooby and the gang just the way we love them!

I mean Shaggie was a realy skinnie boy in the cartoon!If you ask me,I think the actors who play Fred and Shaggie should trade caractors!Although the only person who even the least bit looks like the caractor is Velma!
Who did the casting for this movie?Well who ever it was needs to watch the cartoon a couple more times so he will actualy know what the caractor look like!

Tell you what...did anybody see SUMMER CATCH? No (put your hand down 13 year old girl, i'm trying to make a point)? It sucked...when will Hollywood learn that Freddy Prinze Jr. is good for one genre...the pre-pubescent sleep-over movie?
Hanna-Barbara should be ashamed. ASHAMED!!!!

I REALLy think a bunch of unknowns should have played the cast of the new movie.
1st they could have been paid a LOT less, 2nd, Freddie Prinze Jr, and Sara Michelle Gellar??? you&#39;ve GOT to be kidding!!!! can they NOT do anything w/o being joined at the hip?
the dog looks cool, but Shaggy..not so sure. they should have used Christina Ricci as Velma...hello? Velma has curves, and the Velma chic...TOO SKINNY!! Also, fix Shaggs hair, and why are they using a Ford/Chevy van, when everyone knows it was a VW van. how hard could it be to find one. did I hear it was going to be set in present day? what were they thinking?? the cartoon was in the late 60&#39;s early 70&#39;s..NOT 2001!
I really think they could have done a MUCH better job, but I am a HUGE fan, and will go see it anyway!

man! i still can&#39;t believe they are using FPJ as Freddie. please, what a BAD choice!
SMG? he outfit is all wrong. yeah, she acts like a snooty b*tch, but she is ALL wrong as Daph.
Shaggy..where is his facial hair? can dude not grow any? c&#39;mon..the casting agents REALLY screwed up BIG time on making these choices! let ME take over production...trust me, it would be 100 times better, and the cast would TRULY resemble the cartoons!
I&#39;ll still go see it..heck, i&#39;ll prob. be the 1st one in line:)
they better have some pretty cool chase music though, and not gay-crap, like Smash Mouth, or Sugar Ray!!!
OR queen bitch Brittney Queers!!!
no one wants Backstreet Boys, or Ricky Martin for chase music EITHER!

A Scooby Doo movie. That&#39;s right, peoples. This is the movie all of us intelligent movie goers have been waiting for. Just think ... FPjr, SMG and a CGI DOG in a movie together! That&#39;s $9.50 and two hours of your life that the brain surgeons going to see this piece of turd are going to be sacrificing. I really would like to be face-to-face with the professors that actually put money into making this movie. Isn&#39;t there some kind of forum where you can challenge some of these dumb ass producers and make them accountable for the dumb ass movies that they make? And just think ... when the general public start rumbling because all their questions from this shit stain on film aren&#39;t answered, there&#39;ll be brilliant sequel in the works so we can see FPjr and SMG do things to make their characters even MORE interesting.

That pic of Scooby with the meddling kids is not too big. I mean, have you ever been near a Great Dane? They are huge! I once saw one that came up to my chest in height, and I&#39;m 5&#39;5. Most of them are very sweet animals, but they are pretty intimidating.

Can you say wow what a piece of shit my hampster in his cage would have been a better idea for a movie than this gay ass fucking piece of shit and god will someone give Freddie Prince Jr a award winning script? poor guy anyway he probally would fuck it up anyway my dead aunt has more talent than that piece of shit actor he should just take up porn cause he acts just as auful as he does, Ha god who did the shitty as costume and casting job on this movie i havent seen a movie that looked this bad since well the gay ass cartoon, who actually forked over the money to pay for this, Probally universal well thats my 2 cents

ok, unlike most people that "post" i hardly hate any movies, and this is my opinion on the scooby bashing. get over it ! its like with X-Men, sure Wolverine was a foot taller than normal, but he was awesome. sure Rogue had a real name and was too young, but she was an oscar winner !. Sometimes you have to think about the ability to act as opposed to looking right., now for all those people bashing FPJ and SMG, its obvius that you are bashing the "popular " and praising the "outcasts". ok , yes, FPJ and ML should not do movies together, and yes FPJ is bland, but he is playing Fred, the most worthless character on the cartoon, why do you hink he was faded out as Scrappy came in, he was dull. Fred and Velma are better dramatic characters, where as Shaggy and Daphne are comedic.
as for SMG, yes i love "buffy" she does some great dramatic work there, and some great comedic work, but except for Cruel intentions, no movie has given her chance to shine, in a different role (take not FPJ "different", play a junkie for once), Matthew Lillard, up side ("Hackers",Scream") and bad ("Wing Commander") he can play a possible stoner (this is a PG movie) with his arms tied, buff or not, you can all admit the concept of matthew lillard running around with scooby away from ghosts in live action makes you smile. Linda Cardelinni, right on the money, cause there is no such thing as an ugly character in a movie based on cartoon, but she can handle the velma wit. now should i mention the thing all of you are forgetting here, Rowan "Mr. Bean" Atkinson is playing th cheesy villian, whether or not he has a mask or twp to be ripped off to expected gasping, i thing it will be funny. and you know they will look like they having fun making it since 3 of the 4 are close freinds of a sort, only casting i see as better is Reese Witherspoon as Daphne, her man Ryan Phillippe as Fred, and his pals Breckin Meyer and Seth Green as Shaggy and Scooby, well maybe last bit a stretch, but, with SMG cast maste Alyson Hannigan as velma. OK for my 1st post I have talked alot, but i hope this puts things in perspective.

Hey they wanted to do this movie I think that they are a good cast and you guys think that linda is a freak,matthew is not the right person for shaggy,prinze jr&#39;s hair is bad,gellear sexy,and scooby doo looking like a cgi freak show. Well you know what they made this movie because they wanted to do a sequal to it and they think that its gonna be a huge box office hit.

Well, judging from the picture of the cast, I&#39;d say that Scooby Doo lovers are going to be in for a big let-down. My biggest problem is with Sarah Michelle Gellar. I mean, what is up with that outfit anyway? Daphne was sexy looking yes but she didn&#39;t dress like she was "workin&#39; the street", if you know what I mean. Put some clothes on PLEASE!!!
And what is up with Velma&#39;s shoes? Can she actually run in those clogs?
Oh and Freddie...a little less bryl-cream in the hair, OK?

Who the hell did the casting job. Shaggy is taller than Fred, and he&#39;s strong. Why is Velma pretty (although in my opinion she&#39;s the closest to the cartoon.) If you&#39;re gonna do it with live action (which is a bad idea in the first place)at least make them look good. About a year ago on SNL, Rob Lowe was hosting, and he did this one bit, as shaggy, and he was perfect. He looked like him, he acted like him, he fucking sounded like him. So to summarize, keep velma & scooby, get Rob Lowe as Shaggy, and just completely redo fred & Daphne.

wells....even though I havent seen the new scooby doo movie yet, but it seems kind of interesting. The only part of the movie that seems kind of wierd is Scooby Doo, the dog. He looks ind of fake. Fred(Freddie Prinze Jr.)&#39;s clothes seems very similar to the cartoon one since I use to eatch Scooby Doo all the time. But Sarah Michelle Geller&#39;s clothes is just ugly, i don&#39;t think that she can even act. The person acting shaggy seems too HUGE....looks so funny and wierd

in mah opinion, this movie look cool! i use tah watch scooby all the time. I will surely bethere to watch this movie when it comes out. A few thngs seem to be not right in the movie. Firstly, what is wrong with Sarah Michelle Geller?? I can&#39;t believe people actually chose her as daphane!! The way she is dressed is just not right! and plsu Shaggy is suppose to be soo skinny, but the actor for shaggy in this movie is soo fat and ugly, even though shaggy is ugly in the cartoon anyways. Well Fred, freddie prinze junior seem like he is kind of the normal one in the movie. and velma seems normal too and similar to the cartoon. Those two are th only ppl that actually seem normal in the movie. even though so many people say that fred prinze jr. cant act, but i can&#39;t really tell whether he can or not. the only part i hate so nuch bout the movie is shaggy, the fat one!!

everyone is talkin bout the newly cominh out scooby doo movie, and i myself find it kind of good, just by lookin at the poster. Just don&#39;t like the scooby doo doll....wat is even wrong with it?? it looks like one of those ugly hard furry dolls. The actors in the movie is also ridicilous. Shaggy is known as being skinny, but it don&#39;t look like he is skinny to me anymore according to the movie!! But i do like the way how fred is dressed and sarah too! they both look cute together in tbe movie. Since they look cute together, that is why i am planning to watch the movie, but one thng bout freddie, his hair is a mess, but he is a okay actor i guess. Velma is not very pretty in the movie, but she is not suppose to be anyways. I think that she is the closest looking one to the movie. This movie mght turn out kind of funny, with a ugly shaggy and a fake dog...!!

Leave her alone!!! Okay, I admit that she may not look the part of Daphne, but I think she can pull it off. You people are all WAY too critical and frankly, very two-dimensional to weigh your whole opinion of a movie on what the characters look like. Everybody bitched about Tom Cruise in Interview With the Vampire because he didn&#39;t LOOk like Lestat, and he turned out to be WONDERFUL! You guys are OBSESSED with type-casting. Get over it. And okay, the costumes are different. This is the 21st Century, and who said that the movie had to take place in F**king 1975!?! And quit calling Sarah a $10 whore! She didn&#39;t pick out the costumes!!!!
Oh, but I do think Freddie Prinze Jr. is an assclown!!!

yea, i agree with all the losers in here, this movie will suck some ass, but, are you THAT bored? that you spend time typing up bull shit to put down a stupid ass movie? i think im wasting my time too... see ya
-maggie

Being an obsessed fan of Scooby Doo since I was a kid, I can&#39;t help but to be pumped for this release. I am however not so impressed with the way that Scooby is looking, nor with the characters. But I&#39;m not going to knock it untill I&#39;ve seen it on the big screen. Just give it a chance, that&#39;s all I say.

I&#39;m scared. Scooby looks awesome, as do the costumes, but the actors cast are all wrong. I can&#39;t stand Sarah Michelle or Freddie Prinze Jr. And Mathew Lillar doesn&#39;t look a thing like shaggy... Very sad. Velma looks okay though...
This coulda been such a great movie, but I&#39;ll wait to see it to judge.
